Vinyl Norbornene Market - Global Industry Report, 2030

Posted by aartimule on January 13th, 2021

Vinyl Norbornene Market Introduction;

  • Vinyl Norbornene is an organic compound that consists of a vinyl group attached to norbornene. It is a colorless liquid. The vinyl norbornene exists as endo and exo isomers; however, these are not typically separated.
  • Vinyl norbornene is utilized as an intermediate in the production of the commercial polymer EPDM. Vinyl norbornene is prepared by the Diels-Alder reaction of butadiene and cyclopentadiene.
  • In terms of application, the global vinyl norbornene market can be segmented into ethylene norbornene and organic synthesis. The ethylene norbornene segment is expected to expand at a significant pace during the forecast period. Ethylene norbornene is a colorless liquid intermediate monomer produced by isomerisation of vinyl norbornene, which is made from butadiene and dicyclopentadiene. It is commonly employed in the production of ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer (EPDM) rubber.

Vinyl Norbornene Market: Key Drivers

  • Growing use of vinyl norbornene as a chemical intermediate in the preparation of various organic compounds is expected to boost the market during forecast period. Vinyl norbornene compound consists of two sites of unsaturation; one of which participates in the copolymerisation, and the second of which undergoes vulcanization. It is utilized as a monomer in the production of the commercial polymer EPDM. The compound consists of E- and Z-stereoisomers. These stereoisomers make it an ideal intermediate compound in the production of ethylene-propylene-diene-monomer (EPDM) rubber.
  • Rise in demand for rubber across the globe is expected to boost the consumption of vinyl norbornene during the forecast period. Demand for rubber is increasing across the globe owing to an increase in tire manufacturing, which represents a prominent application of rubber. Rising income levels in developing regions, particularly in Asia Pacific, are likely to boost automotive vehicle manufacturing and usage, thereby fuelling the demand for tires and subsequently, rubber. Thus, an increase in the demand for rubber across the globe is expected to boost the consumption of vinyl norbornene, thereby driving the market during forecast period.

Global Vinyl Norbornene Market Restraints

  • Volatility in prices of raw materials is projected to hamper the global vinyl norbornene market. Raw materials such as butadiene and cyclopentadiene are utilized in the preparation of vinyl norbornene. Prices of raw materials are witnessing volatility, as the supply chain has been disrupted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Demand for these raw materials is also witnessing volatility. This hampers the prices significantly.
  • Lack of universal directives pertaining to applications of vinyl norbornene is also likely to hamper the market in the near future. Every country has different directives and legislations pertaining to the use of vinyl norbornene. Companies find it difficult to comply with these country-wise directives and legislations. This can discourage investment in the vinyl norbornene market, thereby restraining the market.

COVID-19 Impact on Global Vinyl Norbornene Market

  • Vinyl norbornene plays an important role in various end-use industries such as automotive, chemicals, and manufacturing. Numerous production facilities of these end-user industries have halted production due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This has adversely affected the demand for vinyl norbornene.
  • Key players operating in the global vinyl norbornene market are primarily tier I and tier II manufacturers and suppliers. Manufacture and supply chain facilities of these manufacturers have spread across various countries in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Several of these players have halted their production output for the last few months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has negatively impacted the demand and supply chain of vinyl norbornene. Thus, the vinyl norbornene market is expected to contract in 2020.

Asia Pacific to Hold Major Share of Global Vinyl Norbornene Market

  • In terms of region, the global vinyl norbornene market can be split into North America, Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East Asia& Africa and Latin America
  • Asia Pacific is projected to hold a significant share of the global vinyl norbornene market, in terms of consumption, during the forecast period. End-user industries such as automotive, chemicals, and manufacturing are expanding rapidly in the region. Rise in disposable income and improvement in standard of living in numerous countries in Asia Pacific are boosting the demand for automotive vehicles. This, in turn, is augmenting the demand for vinyl norbornene. Additionally, a rise in production and consumption of rubber in China, India, Japan, and South Korea is expected to increase the consumption of vinyl norbornene in automotive applications, thereby boosting the market in these countries.
  • North America is expected to account for vital share of the global vinyl norbornene market during the forecast period owing to the presence of major market players and expansion of the chemical industry in the U.S. and Canada
